• The highly accurate KERN counting system can replace a whole range of individual balances, efficiently and at a reasonable price
        • Thanks to EC type approval [M] this counting system can also be used in verified applications, e.g. for order picking packaged items, etc.
        • The balances are connected to one another with an RS 232 Y-cable, which also allows you to connect an end unit, such as, for example, signal lamps, barcode scanners or printers (KERN TCCA-A01-A, included in the scope of supply)

                                              Counting Scales – Efficient Quantity Determination by Weight

                                              Counting scales are industrial weighing systems that determine the number of identical parts based on their total weight. They are used when large quantities of small items—such as screws, nuts, electronic components or precision parts—must be counted quickly, reliably and without manual effort.

                                              Key features include high resolution, automatic reference weight calculation, sum/count functions, interfaces for data transfer and robust construction suitable for production, warehousing and logistics environments.



                                              FAQ About Counting Scales

                                              Answers about how counting scales work, selection criteria, typical applications and common error sources.

                                              How does a counting scale work?

                                              The scale first determines the reference weight of a single item—either through input or by placing a known sample quantity on the platform. When the unknown batch is weighed, the scale divides the total weight by the reference weight and calculates the number of pieces.

                                              Where are counting scales used?

                                              Typical applications include inventory counting, warehouse and shipping operations, order picking of bulk items, production control and all processes where manual counting is too slow or error-prone.

                                              Which selection criteria are most important?

                                              • Smallest piece weight – how light is one individual part?
                                              • Maximum total load – how much will be placed on the scale?
                                              • Platform size – is the weighing area sufficient for bulk quantities?
                                              • Resolution and counting accuracy – how precise must the count be?
                                              • Interfaces – e.g., RS-232, USB or Ethernet for printers, data collection or ERP systems
                                              • Robust design for industrial environments (dust, moisture, temperature)

                                              What does “resolution” or “counting resolution” mean?

                                              It describes how finely the scale can distinguish weight differences. Higher resolution enables more accurate counting, especially when dealing with very small piece weights and large quantities.

                                              Are counting scales subject to legal verification?

                                              Generally, no—if only the piece count is used. If the weight itself is used for commercial transactions, legal-for-trade requirements may apply.

                                              Which interfaces do modern counting scales offer?

                                              Most models provide RS-232, USB or Ethernet connectivity for printers, PCs, labelers or warehouse and production systems.

                                              What are common error sources?

                                              • Incorrect reference sample or too few pieces used for reference
                                              • Overloading the platform with excessive quantities
                                              • Poor distribution of parts on the platform
                                              • Unstable surfaces, vibrations or temperature fluctuations

                                              How can I request a quotation?

                                              Please provide ICS Schneider Messtechnik with: smallest piece weight, maximum total load, platform size, environmental conditions (dust, moisture, temperature), required interfaces and desired counting accuracy. You will receive a tailored offer.
